FAQs

Answering Your Brain’s Questions

Is this really different from other self help workbooks?
Yes. Balanced By Design was built with neuroscience and mindfulness so it helps you stop overthinking, reset your brain, and move forward with clarity instead of guilt.

Can coloring really help with mindfulness and burnout recovery?
Coloring has been shown to calm your nervous system, reduce stress, and create a natural reset. That’s why this workbook includes reflective coloring pages alongside journaling tools.

Why not just use a planner or journal?
Planners keep you busy. Journals can leave you stuck in your head. Balanced By Design bridges both — practical planning plus reflection — so you stay grounded and make progress without overwhelm.

Why is the workbook print-only?
Writing by hand helps your brain slow down, remember more, and cut through brain fog. That’s why this isn’t another PDF collecting dust in your downloads.

Looking for more clarity, calm, and momentum? You don’t have to figure it out alone. Start with one page. One prompt. One reset at a time.
